Hello, I recently got a Philco model 14 code 221 chairside and a model 17chairside, code is unknown. I was using a schematic for the model 14 code 226 for electronic work, but there are several differences between my set and the schematic.
Hope someone here can help.
Some while ago I ran across a web site where an apparently older gentleman sold some pretty nifty aids and tools. I do remember he had a tool that apparently screwed onto the volume control shaft, allowing you to force cleaner into the sealed volume control to clean it. I remember trying to order it, sent a money order only to get it back, where he stated he needed to fabricate some more and was out at the time.
Hello, picked up a Philco 38-2670 locally for $20 in very good shape. The dial scale is trashed. I looked at Radio Daze and they list two different dial scales for this model, ie. catalog item DS-A366 and DS-A130. Does any one know if there is a difference?
Is there a way to get the transformer specs from the Philco part number?
I have a Philco Model 42-1002 Code 122 that my parents had in the 1940s.
Ok I went to replace the rubber bushings that go between the main chassis and the air capacitor and two wires broke off Im pretty sure where A went and soldered the new wire on but B im not sure there was a wire (small grey one coming off from where B is now soldered labeled Cbut it was just hanging there) im not sure that is where it goes any help would be most appreciated Thanks doug
I have a Crosley 148 I'm working on and one of the first problems I've encountered is the Vol pot has some bad spots so the resistance I'm reading is all over the place. Tried cleaning without success so I'm looking to replace it. None of the info I have shows what the Vol pot should be. Any Ideas??? Thanks I have recently acquired a 40-160 but the escutcheon covering the dial and 6 push buttons is missing. Does anyone know where I might possibly get these parts? Hi all, Since this is for a positive ground system (52 Plymouth), when I go to hookup my dc power supply to test it I believe I should connect the red positive lead to the chassis and the black negative lead to the input wire on the radio that has the inline 14A fuse. Is this correct? Do not want to buy another SS vibrator!!! These are polarity sensitive!! Thanks, Ken Kidd |
